(Somehow, calling it Yahoo! seems inappropriate when you're griping about it.) Yahoo! has apparently decided (or maybe it was unintentional) to prune the deadwood out of their system; suddenly a *lot* of email addresses are returning "Sorry your message to candace_0001@yahoo.com cannot be delivered. This account has been disabled or discontinued [#102]." and suchlike. A lot more are returning over-quota errors, so I'm guessing they lowered the quotas, too. I just checked my test Yahoo! account, and it bounces mail with the disabled/discontinued message, which might change if I could remember my password and check in on the website. (Okay, so in that case they're right about it being a deadwood account...) If anybody here's a regular Yahoo user and has any more information (such as "My account's working fine"), holler. -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Game(s): The Whole Phoenyx Listowner tools are found at http://www.phoenyx.net/listowners/

I have a Yahoo account I use for playing in another PBEM and it's been working just fine (knock on cyber-wood). However, that list is fairly active and so I check in once every day or two so my account stays pretty active. -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Game(s): MJ Harnish Listowner tools are found at http://www.phoenyx.net/listowners/

But that might include people who forward to other accounts (if Yahoo! allows that), if those people ignored any "Check in or die!" emails, for example. -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Game(s): The Whole Phoenyx Listowner tools are found at http://www.phoenyx.net/listowners/
